VICTORIA'S POV
"Ouch!! I am sorry okay?" Alexander said while he massaged his jaw, to ease out the pain, that my punch might've caused.
"For a girl that looks so delicate, your punches are surely powerful." He commented again when I didn't say anything.Meanwhile, what I was doing? I was trying to smoothen my messy thoughts that were all over the place.
"Look, I know, I shouldn't have kissed you so suddenly before saying anything and-" Alexander started, but I cut him mid-sentence when my anger started to rise.
And I know I need to take out my anger, before my powers think, that it's a perfect time to make Victoria's life messier than it already is, by exposing her in front of her crush, so that he can run miles away from her, just after kissing her.
"How dare you!" I said, nearing Alexander as I jabbed my finger in his chest.
"Do you have any idea of your own feelings?" I said looking him straight in the eyes.
"How dare
VICTORIA'S POV"I.…I..." I started, not knowing what to say."Why the hell are you guys scaring her? Don't you know that mates have telepathic communication?" Daniel said as he rushed towards my side, before taking my hand in his own."You don't need to be scared. I got you." He said, smiling at me.That's the exact reason, why I always say, I feel a sense of security when I am around him because I know, he will always have my back."Leave her hand. This has nothing to do with that. Besides, are you insane? Are your 'were' hormones reacting too much now, that you've been left without a mate for this long?" Alexander said as he pulled me toward him, holding my hand firmly in his."Look Alexander, I don't want to disappoint you, but I also have feelings for her. And they are real. You feel it too, don't you? I respect you because you are my alpha king, but that doesn't mean I'll bow down to you, even when the love of my life is at stake
VICTORIA'S POV"Do you think she went in shock?""What are you talking about? Are you crazy? Don't spout nonsensical things.""But he is right, why isn't she awake yet?""I think you should splash some more water on her face.""I have a better idea. Throw her into waters. She will wake up when she'll drown.""Daniel, you better take him out of here, before I decide it's much better to drown him.""Ignore him. But I do agree with his idea of splashing some water on her.""I don't know. I am kind of feeling a bit jittery. Will she think I am some kind of monster?""Don't overthink. I am sure, she'll understand if we explain her and give her some time.""Yeah, maybe you are right. I don't think I can live without her if she decides to leave me because of my species. Hunter will be heartbroken, and I don't even know how will I be able to mend things with him.""We are not done wit
ALEXANDER'S POV"Hey dad, yeah, I understand that. I'll be going to prom tonight. Don't worry, I have a partner. No, it's not Laila. Okay, I'll tell you the details later. I am going to get late if I talk to you more." I said before ending the call.Now don't get me wrong, you guys probably might think, how rude it was of me to end the call like that, but I did it for his good. I don't want to disturb their holidays, besides, they'll be back tomorrow anyway and I can tell them about Victoria when I'll let them meet her.Checking my reflection in the mirror one last time, I took my car keys so that I can pick Victoria from her house.On my way to her home, I couldn't help but pick a bouquet of red roses, as an indication of my feelings. I was going to propose to her tonight, that's why it's better if I test the waters before making the proper move. I mean she will let me know, if she isn't interested in my advances, no?Besides, I was positive
ALEXANDER'S POVOnce the song was over, I couldn't help but push Laila away from me."Next time, you only approach me if there is something serious. For trivial matters like these, you can approach Chris." I said before looking towards the food aisle where I had spotted her last.Not being able to find her anywhere near me, I couldn't help but feel worry wash over me, when I noticed even Daniel was nowhere to be seen.Since, I have been acting more intimate with Victoria, I can trace her smell more accurately than before, though I still don't understand the reason why tracing her smell is so difficult in the first place.Following the trail of the smell, my heart started beating a bit irregularly when I also smelled Daniel's scent alone with her.Turning around the last corner which leads to the backside of the university, I stopped dead in my tracks when I saw Daniel about to kiss Victoria.Watching such a scene unfolding in fron
VICTORIA'S POVRunning at the fastest speed I could, I finally reached the goal that Azrael had set up for me, for today, which was 30 km. Okay, fine. I cheated a bit.It's been a month since she started training me vigorously so that I can transform less painfully and cooperate with both, my witch powers and Carla.Now, you guys must be feeling confused, thinking what's this all about. Let me brief you, I started transforming, from that day in the forest, when I saw my horrified reflection for the first time in the lake.When Alexander was telling me about his species of werewolves, and all that mate stuff, and I was feeling this excruitiating pain, Carla's voice filled with urgency echoed in my head.'I warned you to get far away from here as soon as possible. Didn't I? Now that our mate has kissed us, it has triggered the transformation process by 10 times. Even your witch powers are having a hard time suppressing it.' She said as she started to
ALEXANDER'S POV"Would you like to wear, the black one or the blue one?" My mom asked me while holding two suits in her hand."Choose whatever mom, it's not like these suits are going to make any difference," I said pissed before going out of the room.Once I was out of my room, the guilt of talking rudely to my mom washed over me, as I hugged before exiting the corridor. But I can't help it either.I have been feeling like this for a month now.It has been exactly a month since I last saw her.Hunter has shunned me out since he blames me for the reason she left us without saying anything. Neither does he talks to me, nor he comes and takes over my body anymore until it's related to some killing.He has barred himself from changing into a wolf until a rogue is in the picture.He had killed more than 200 rogues in the last month, even going to the extent of venturing out of the boundaries so that he can kill some more and
VICTORIA'S POV"I, Victoria Carla Gibberson-" I started, however, before I could utter the words I had been aiming to say since last month, a large hand clamped on our mouth, stopping us from speaking anything further."I think we need to talk alone about this Victoria. Yeah? Let's not talk about it right now. Please?" Alexander said, with glistening eyes.It broke my heart to see him like this, but I wanted to say those words so that we can get past this phase and get this over with.'Just get it over with Victoria You are scaring the guy." Carla shouted from inside my head.'I was doing that only. It's him who stopped me in between.' I remarked before rolling my eyes.Oh, did I forgot to mention that while I was doing the things that Carla had been instructing me to do and was having a tough time outside, Carla and joy were relaxing inside my mind.'She is playing him, I am telling you.' Joy remarked before popping some invisible thin
VICTORIA'S POV"Ummm..sorry. But do I know you?" I asked confused."You don't remember me? Well, that's very unlikely of you. You are the first person I've met, who dared to say that she doesn't recognize me." The familiar man said with a hint of a smile on his face."Well, I don't remember you. And, if you don't mind, can you please step aside? You're blocking my view of my mate Alexander taking the oath." I said, trying to see past him."Hahahaha...you are a funny one. I like you already." The man said before he went near the woman whose gaze has been fixated on me since the moment, I entered the room.'Well with that creepy gaze you are throwing towards me, I surely don't like you.' I wanted to say but stopped myself. He can be some higher-up for all I know since he was the one who crowned Alexander.'Weird uncle.' I thought before looking at my man who was taking the oath."-And I will conclude it by saying, I promise as the now,
ALEXANDER'S POV "Alpha Alex, few people are here from Blood moon pack. They are saying something about the alpha inviting you to their wedding ceremony." Sean said from out of my room. "Ask them to wait in my office. I'll be there in some time." I ordered before looking at the photo frame that had a photo of me kissing Victoria at my crowning ceremony. It's been six months since that incident.We didn't find her. Everyone said that the girl that Azrael brought out from the river was Victoria, but my heart still not believes it. She can't be dead. I know it. I can feel it. However, at the back of my mind, the thought that I might've lost her is always present. That day, after searching for her for 28 hours when my body was exhausted completely, I returned to the mansion, not before strictly ordering the guards to check every part of the whole course of the river as well as th
ALEXANDER'S POVI looked at Azrael shocked for a second before I looked back at my father."How did you know I wanted you to call her?" I asked him, and he looked at me back with an equally confused gaze."He didn't call me. I came back on my own. Where is my goddaughter, Victoria." Azrael asked, her voice holding a strange power."She...I don't know that. I thought she would be in the mansion, but when I came here, I found didn't find her. I was going to find her now before you showed up." I said, standing straight."She...did she...I felt like she changed. Is that true? Did she changed into her wolf form?" She asked, a bit fidgety with a hint of urgency clear in her eyes."She did. She changed into the legendary wolf. Did you know that she wasn't a lantern? That she was the reincarnation of Carla?"
VICTORIA'S POVLying on the floor bed of the forest as blood oozed out of me, I wondered if this was how I was going to die.If this was my twisted fate.All my life I yearned for the love and care of everyone and in the end, I was tricked again. I was tricked out of it again.Looking at the end of the cliff that was still around a kilometer away from me, I gasped to contain the pain before crawling with my body that had started to shut down.'Victoria stop! Let us help you! We can still go through this togetherness!' Carla screamed, however, I was too hurt by what she did to care about anything anymore.______15 minutes ago______'Now coming to the sacrifice part. I am still not sure what I want to sacrifice.' I said in my mind, knowing that they were hearing me pretty well.'Victoria-' Joy started, but I stopped her mid-sentence, shaking my head because I didn't even want to face her after what Carla conspired again
ALEXANDER'S POV'Are you sure that this was the right decision?' I asked hunter for the umpteenth time.'I don't know, okay? I have heard about this spell but have never seen anyone doing it. From what I know, only one of the strongest witches can perform this spell. And if what I am thinking now is right, then Victoria indeed will be sacrificed if we don't bring that heirloom back.' Hunter replied.'That's not what I wanted to ask. What I wanted to ask is, are you sure that it's Victoria on whom that spell is performed?' I asked, making him stop dead in his tracks.However, before he could reply to me, we suddenly felt a sudden pang in our body, making us hit the nearby tree.'What is this all about?' I thought as another thing hit us.As we stood after the hit, I noticed three almost invisible shadows floating in the air, trying to hit us, out of the corner of my eyes.However, before they could hit us this time, hunter saw them right
VICTORIA'S POV'There is nothing like that, Victoria. You are just thinking too much into things.' Carla calmed me, however, the possibility of my presumption being true was scaring me deeply."Make yourself clear nasty witch! What is this sacrifice spell all about." Carla asked, her eyes glowing like a cold flame."Well, it's very simple. I initiated the spell around half an hour ago when Alexander was fighting with me. All I needed to do was put those chanted herbs containing the blood of an evil soul into Alexander's blood to start the spell. I had already planned all of this because I knew this was the easiest way to let Victoria come with me without hustling around." Patrick said while looking at us with a smirk."This can't be it. Since it's a sacrifice spell, there has to be a sacrifice to save Alexander, right? Tell me or I'll kill you even before you think about trading Victoria." Carla warned again, plunging her hand in his chest and holding his
VICTORIA'S POV'Hey! Do you even know where you are running off to?' I couldn't help but ask for the umpteenth time.'Of course, I know. I can... I mean your witch powers can smell another witch from miles. And I am gonna use them to locate that dirty witch who has my mate.' Carla replied.'It's our mate.' I said, annoyed before sitting back leisurely.Now I know how bad Carla must've felt all this time when she had to live inside me without coming out. It feels like I am watching a movie where someone else is controlling my body, and I am just a side character.'It won't take long. Don't worry, I am not planning to take over your body completely. You still have those witch powers that stop me whenever I try to take control. Luckily you used your energy when healing Rosaline, and that's the sole reason why they allowed me to take over the body. However, it won't be the case for long.' Carla mumbled at the end, confusing me a bit.Howev
VICTORIA'S POV"How is this possible?" Robert asked while he fell from the intensity of Carla's growl.I turned around and looked at Theodore and others, who were in no better position."I.." Carla started, looking straight ahead at the people who were still fighting.Her voice held so much power that all the wolves, be it, pack mates or rogues, stopped to look at her."I...Carla Victoria Gibberson, the queen of the mansion, the werewolf species, the descendant of the moon goddess, and the daughter of the Ava, orders everyone present here and in the peripheral of 40 km to stop this war and bloodshed immediately." Carla roared, her voice followed by a thunderous sound in the sky.Her strong and powerful voice made me shudder even when I knew she was a part of me."Bow down to the queen!" She growled again, and to my utmost horror, everyone present on the ground immediately fell to their knees with their head bowed to us.
ALEXANDER'S POV'Hunter, can you feel where he went?' I asked through my mind link while following the scent of that nasty witch who had been helping Robert in his destruction plan.'I am not sure. He isn't leaving any traces. Let's go in the north direction first.' Hunter replied, making me run in the north direction.However, before I could run even a km, I was pushed back to the ground by a large force.Looks like the coward has finally decided to show his face."I don't get what you are running for. You and your species call yourself strong creatures, but when it comes to a one-on-one fight, you do nothing but run with your tail between your legs like a pussy you guys are." I shouted, trying to excite the witch."Who is running from you, dog? What can you do with your weakened body anyways? What I am trying to do is buy myself some time so that I can do what I want." Patrick smirked, his body floating in the air."Haha... You call y
VICTORIA'S POV"Rosaline! Go back inside!" Theodore said as he rushed towards her."Stop where you are, or I'll slit my throat!" Rosaline threatened, her eyes fixated on Robert.Robert, who was still hugging me, became so stiff that it felt like I was hugging a stone rather than a person.It wasn't long before I felt him trembling under me as he gripped my elbows to stabilize himself.It was a good sign, I guess. His resolution was breaking. I knew what he was feeling right now, and I think this was the only way left we can use to bring the humanity in him back.Turning around, I looked at Rosaline and nodded at her slightly to continue what she was doing."Is this what you want, Robby?" Rosaline repeated her question before making another cut on her arm.Her legs swayed as she stepped forward, and she had to take the support of a wall to keep standing.I wanted to help her, but I knew, the more pitiful she would look,
